Some words about Swedish Speaking
Population in the Baltic Countries. There never was any
native Swedish speaking population in Lithuania. Lithuanian
native minorities are Poles, Russians, Belarussians, Ukrainians,
Jews, Germans, Tatars, Latvians, Gipsies, and Karaims. For more

Here is the flag of the Association of the Germans in
Klaipeda. Klaipeda (German: Memel) is
a city in Lithuania situated at the mouth of the Curonian Lagoon
where it flows into the Baltic Sea. Here lives a small German
minority (approximately 4000 persons).
The Germans and their descendants have organized in the
"Verein der Deutschen in Klaipeda" (Lithuanian: Klaipedos
vokieciu bendrija; English: Association of the Germans in
Klaipeda). The flag combines the German and Lithuanian flag. In
the middle of the flag is the circular logo of the former
district of Memelland and present Coat of Arms.
The use of the Lithuanian name of the city "Klaipeda"
means the recognition of the sovereignty of the Republic of
Lithuania on the area of the former district of Memelland.Source: TV-reports "Meine Heimat-Deine

Poles in Vilnius wanted to establish such a republic in 1989.
I read that the polish hoisted Polish flags (red
and white) , and Polish flags with emblems but with a little
differences from the current Polish eagleJaume Olle', 23 June 1998

The flag of Vilnius Region is the regional flag of Polish
people of Wilnoland/Vilnius Region and it is a flag of people
inhabited in this region for couple hundred years. Nowadays in
Europe we can observe regeneration of small nations and national
minorities. Most nations and national groups, which didn't have
their own flags before, have them now, keeping in mind that
process of regionalization in Europe is in progress and the
Movement "100 Flags" gets stronger, it is the reason
why Lithuanian Polish People's Party <www.lllp.lt> raised up the
question of setting up the regional symbols of Vilnius Region.
The symbols which are set and used by people of Vilnius Region is
not created under any legislation of directives. The flag was
accepted in a conference of Lithuanian Polish People's Party in
27 July 2003. It is modificated version of the flag since the
Rebellions 1830 - 1831 and 1863, but still in the same colors. On
the upper, broad, white stripe is situated pastiched blossom of
cornflower, plenty of which you can find in the fields of Vilnius
Region and which from ancient times was a symbol of Slavs.Robert Szymanski, 10 September 2006
